How could my snoring affect my partner's dementia risk?

Snoring is a problem that can get worse with age. As we get older muscle tone decreases all over our bodies, even in our airways! This means that the soft tissues in your upper airway are much more likely to vibrate as you breathe; causing the snoring sound.

How could my snoring affect my dementia risk?

If you snore heavily, it can be a sign of an obstruction in your airway. If you suffer from obstructive sleep apnoea, this obstruction is so severe that the flow of oxygen is reduced or completely stopped while you sleep.

How can I stop snoring having an impact?

Products from the Snoreeze Oral Range are designed to tighten and lubricate the soft tissues at the back of the throat, reducing or preventing the snoring that can worsen as we age. These products can help those with a mild to moderate snoring problem to sleep quietly, reducing the impact snoring has on you and your partner.

For those with a more severe snoring problem, sprays and other similar treatments may not prove effective. If you are suffering from severe snoring or mild to moderate sleep apnoea, the Snoreeze Oral Device can really help by making sure you airway does not collapse, creating free space at the back of your throat and ensuring air can flow through easily while you sleep.
